ICOD: training and scholarships for integrated ocean development

Abstract

The International Centre for Ocean Development (ICOD) was established as a crown corporation of Canada in February 1985, with a mandate to initiate, encourage and support cooperation between Canada and developing countries in the field of ocean resource development. Programs are concentrated in three sectors: technical and advisory assistance, training and scholarships and information services.ICOD designs and delivers training programs related to the extension of jurisdiction and to fisheries and ocean management. Programs range from basic, short-term technical training to graduate-level education. Training activities take place both in Canada and in the developing countries. ICOD's scholarship program offers awards for study in marine-related disciplines at Canadian universities and selected international institu¬tions.
